Failed building wheel for virtualenvwrapper-win

[yonnig]

While I got the following error when installing (pip install virtualenvwrapper-win)...

  ...
  writing dependency_links to virtualenvwrapper_win.egg-info\dependency_links.txt
  warning: manifest_maker: standard file '-c' not found

  Failed building wheel for virtualenvwrapper-win
Failed to build virtualenvwrapper-win
Installing collected packages: virtualenv, virtualenvwrapper-win
  Running setup.py install for virtualenvwrapper-win
Successfully installed virtualenv-13.1.2 virtualenvwrapper-win-1.2.1

... *.bat files just installed successfully.

This failure message is puzzling. What do wheels or eggs have to see with installation of *.bat files ?

Environment : pip 7.0.1 from C:\Python27\lib\site-packages (python 2.7)

Cannot reproduce with pip 9.0.1, either by creating a wheel (note I'm doing this in a fresh virtualenv):
